[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm 43 and attractive, in shape, and dating. Lately all of the guys I've gone out with have asked right away if I like to cook. I don't.[b] The guy I'm dating now gets homemade meals delivered from his mom weekly (supposedly for his kids, but he eats it too). Is this going to be a problem[/b]?[/quote]
When DH and I started dating , I did not know how to cook. He was 39 at the time.  He knew this about me, and he didn't care. He knew how to cook, and actually cooked for me while we were dating. Still does.

The bolded would make me run. The problem is not you not knowing how to cook, but that he's looking for a cook for his kids (and himself).

Eh, I read it as a grandma cooking for her grandkids now that their mom isn’t around. Kinda sweet, assuming she’s local.[/quote]

If this is anything like the divorced Turkish side of my family, I’d stop rationalizing right now.  Not healthy. Too much enabling and codependency up and down the family tree. Divorced uncle did this and then took his Laundry to his old mothers so her nurse could do that and he could eat 3 meals a day there. After she died he tried to move in to his married sons new house but was told no so moved nearby and stops by for food and laundry all the time. Poor new wife plus has a baby now ( a real baby).[/quote]
